    I just registered because after finding this suit in an estate sale and trying it on (it fits!)

    I paid $10 and am now trying to track down the daughter of the woman who owned it. There it was in a dark little closet with some other old (nothing interesting) clothes. I thought how can i update this for today's look, and in my investigation of the label came to find out all about Gilbert Adrian. Needless to say I will not be updating it! It is in pristine condition with a couple of little food stains of the same kind on the front and right inside cuff. What do I do about that? I would never take it to the local dry cleaners.

    Now i will try and upload the photos, try and make them small.

    Looking forward to viewing the photos. Excellent find, no doubt.

    Given that your local dry cleaning establishment is not suitable, I'd consider sending it to a specialist cleaner at a distance.

    Smashing suit, I like the sleeve accent - no idea what you would call that!
